PG - 287-90 LID - 10.1111/j.1399-0039.2011.01832.x [doi] AB - Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-E is an inhibitory ligand of natural killer cells and gamma/delta T-cells. Differential expression of HLA-E alleles on the cell surface has been reported to influence outcome of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). We performed HLA-E genotyping in 116 HSCT patients and their HLA-matched unrelated donors. The impact of HLA-E genotypes on patient's overall survival (OS), disease free survival (DFS), cumulative incidences for relapse, transplant-related mortality (TRM) and acute graft vs host disease (aGvHD) was assessed. Neither univariate nor multivariate analysis showed any influence of HLA-E polymorphisms on the investigated endpoints of HSCT in our cohort. We could not confirm any of the previous observations in our cohort and consider it unlikely that HLA-E polymorphisms affect outcome of HSCT. CI - (c) 2012 John Wiley & Sons A/S.
